ON January 15, 2015 I visited BAlC to pay the lease on a track of land situated off Cowpen Road.
I listened and read with concern what the Prime Minister, Perry G Christie said on the news, Tuesday, February 3, 2015 and as recorded in The Tribune, Wednesday February 4, 2015 respectively, concerning the “Money Lenders – Have Created Modern Day Slaves”.
The Bahamian staff at BTC were no doubt labouring under the assumption that the Bahamian government is the majority owner of BTC, by virtue of its ownership of 49 percent shares in addition to the two per cent shares which was transferred in the BTC Foundation in 2014.
Some people say that pride does not feel any pain. Others say that having too much pride will kill you. Maybe these sayings are true, maybe they are not. But what has happened to the once prideful young Bahamian?
Seems you have problems with discrimination, (Letters, Faceless, 11/2 15).
Following my viewing on television media a night ago, and listening attentively to the discussion on the impending fee hikes of Cable Bahamas products, and their services to the Bahamian public; I personally say no, to such raises, and, for many reasons:
I don’t have much to say today; only that it would be my wish that under the (new) immigration rules being touted in recent times requiring all non-Bahamians to have a passport with a residency stamp within it, that the rules do not dictate that these persons should have this passport on them at all times, especially children.
In 2014, there were, allegedly, some 112 homicides. The majority of these were perpetuated by relatively younger men on other younger men/women known to them or with whom they would have had a personal altercation or relationship. At the rate we have started off 2015 it is highly likely that the homicide level will exceed that of last year. The carnage, seemingly, goes on unabated.
Will the bright light who’s responsible for traffic lights fix the timing on the East Bay/Village Road and Shirley St/Village Road lights?
Under the heading “The Unceremonious firing of Senator Hunt”, “The Phoenix” wrote a letter which was published in a leading newspaper today, suggesting that Dr Minnis made a bad decision to ask Heather Hunt to resign.
The beginning of the year is typically a time for spring cleaning for many of us as we file away the old and prepare for what the new year will bring.
Kindly permit me space in your valuable columns to comment on the scheduled Junkanoo-Carnival.
With your kind leave, I wish to add my voice to the current national debate on immigration.
The latest jobless figures on Grand Bahama from the Department of Statistics reveals that 18.6 of the labour force on the island is unemployed.
The relevant legal authorities should explain to the general society what is meant by the term “The worst of the worst”.
RECENTLY, I have heard some very high figures being bandied around as the sum we will make on the Junkanoo Carnival.
There are many forms of cultural expressions in The Bahamas. There is energy and excitement of Junkanoo and rake and scrape music. There are masterful Bahamian carvings, sculptures and paintings. There are the performing arts and literary masterpieces.
I am FNM. I do not need to quantify that, but I believe the Junkanoo Carnival is a brilliant idea. I am an optimist! Mistakes have been made, but can be corrected. Let us look on the brighter side. This is a Bahamian thing, done by Bahamians.
I was saddened to read, in this morning’s Letters to the Editor, that a commercial marina may be built in Little Harbour, Abaco. I cannot understand why such a thing might be allowed.
Some smart aleck within the Gold Rust government of PM Perry Christie conjured up the bright idea of importing the foreign carnival festival to The Bahamas and pumping $9m of the Bahamian people’s hard earned money into it.
Minister of Foreign Affairs and Immigration, Frederick Mitchell, and Queen’s Counsel Frederick Smith have been on opposing sides of debates regarding the “new” immigration policies. I have been trying to follow the arguments for and against as closely as possible, and have some straight forward advice for each of them:
LITTLE Harbour, Abaco, Bahamas... four words that made up a big part of our lives in the early nineteen-nineties. We sailed in with our three-year-old boy, intending to continue the journey South.
I am so tired of “proving” that I am Bahamian because of the colour of my skin. Who and what is a Bahamian anyway? To anyone is who NOT a Black Bahamian it feels as though you have to be Black, in order to be considered Bahamian, period. And this sentiment isn’t just felt by non-Black Bahamians (ie Caucasian Bahamians, Conchy-Joes, whatever you want to call us), it’s also felt by those who are not necessarily Bahamian at all, but are legally living in this country, and have the right to be here.
The announcement of the Government’s new immigration policy appeals to certain emotions and foments a resentment of foreign nationals. In reviewing aspects of the policy, it appears, in what has become a troubling pattern, that the government is prepared to ignore the rule of law.
Hats off to Dr Michael Neville for his “A Life of Crime” Series.
